An efficient method of synthesizing fluorine-containing analogues of 1-lysoglycerophospholipids (1-LPLs) by introducing a palmitoyl moiety starting from bis(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl)phosphonoacetate (Still-Gennari reagent) is described. The method effectively

Phosphatidylinositol phosphates are key regulators of cell signalling pathways and membrane trafficking in eukaryotic cells, and there is a need for new chemical probes to further understand how they interact with lipid-binding proteins. Here, the synthes

The first chemical syntheses of polymerizable monoacylglycerol and 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol are reported. The monodienoylglycerol is obtained in 80% yield from 1,2-O-isopropylidene-sn-glycerol and dienoyl fatty acid. The dienoic acid is accessible in 60% yield from the base-catalyzed hydrolysis of dienoyl ester, which is synthesized from the Wittig-Horner reaction of aldehyde and trimethyl 4-phosphonocrotonate. The acylation is carried out in the presence of 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine and dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. The use of excess protected glycerol relative to fatty acid affords the acylated product in high yield. The final step is the deprotection of isopropylidene group using dilute HCl solution. The 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol is synthesized by acylation of 3-(4-methoxybenzyl)-sn-glycerol with dienoyl fatty acid in the presence of 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine and dicyclohexylcarbodiimide. The removal of the 4-methoxybenzyl group by dimethylboron bromide catalyzed hydrolysis is especially useful in the synthesis of polymerizable lipids because the deprotection proceeds without any apparent effect on the dienoyl polymerizable group and without detectable isomerization of 1,2-diacylglycerol to 1,3-diacylglycerol. The overall yield for the synthesis of the polymerizable 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycerol from the dienoyl fatty acid is ca. 50%.

A series of sesterterpenoid bioconjugates with phospholipids and polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) have been synthesized for biological activity testing as antiproliferative agents in several cancer cell lines. Different substitution analogues of the or
The Chiral Target of Daptomycin Is the 2R,2′S Stereoisomer of Phosphatidylglycerol

Daptomycin (dap) is an important antibiotic that interacts with the bacterial membrane lipid phosphatidylglycerol (PG) in a calcium-dependent manner. The enantiomer of dap (ent-dap) was synthesized and was found to be 85-fold less active than dap against
Stereospecific synthesis of phosphatidylglycerol using a cyanoethyl phosphoramidite precursor

Phosphatidylglycerols (PG) are a family of naturally occurring phospholipids that are responsible for critical operations within cells. PG are characterized by an (R) configuration in the diacyl glycerol backbone and an (S) configuration in the phosphoglycerol head group. Herein, we report a synthetic route to provide control over the PG stereocenters as well as control of the acyl chain identity.

Zwitterionic polysaccharides (ZPSs) activate T-cell-dependent immune responses by major histocompatibility complex class II presentation. Herein, we report the first synthesis of a Morganella morganii ZPS repeating unit as an enabling tool in the synthesis of novel ZPS materials. The repeating unit incorporates a 1,2-cis-α-glycosidic bond; the problematic 1,2-trans-galactosidic bond, Gal-β-(1 → 3)-GalNAc; and phosphoglycerol and phosphocholine residues which have not been previously observed together as functional groups on the same oligosaccharide. The successful third-generation approach leverages a first in class glycosylation of a phosphoglycerol-functionalized acceptor. To install the phosphocholine unit, a highly effective phosphocholine donor was synthesized.
Total Synthesis of (-)-Isoamericanin A and (+)-Isoamericanol A
Pilkington, Lisa I.,Barker, David
, p. 1037 - 1046 (2015/10/05)
The enantioselective total synthesis of the biologically active 1,4-benzodioxane lignans isoamericanin A (2) and isoamericanol A (3) has been achieved in 11 and 12 steps, respectively. These benzodioxane lignan natural products, and others that contain 9-hydroxymethyl group, show a wide range of biological properties. The 1,4-benzodioxane ring was formed by an acid-catalysed cyclisation, which gave the desired trans isomer exclusively. This method will allow the synthesis of a number of benzodioxane compounds containing a 9-hydroxymethyl group The total syntheses of (-)-isoamericanin A and (+)-isoamericanol A are described. The key steps were a Mitsunobu etherification and the acid-catalysed formation of the 1,4-benzodioxane moiety with exclusive formation of the desired trans isomer.

Synthesis of modified peptidoglycan precursor analogues for the inhibition of glycosyltransferase

The peptidoglycan glycosyltransferases (GTs) are essential enzymes that catalyze the polymerization of glycan chains of the bacterial cell wall from lipid II and thus constitute a validated antibacterial target. Their enzymatic cavity is composed of a donor site for the growing glycan chain (where the inhibitor moenomycin binds) and an acceptor site for lipid II substrate. In order to find lead inhibitors able to fill this large active site, we have synthesized a series of substrate analogues of lipid I and lipid II with variations in the lipid, the pyrophosphate, and the peptide moieties and evaluated their biological effect on the GT activity of E. coli PBP1b and their antibacterial potential. We found several compounds able to inhibit the GT activity in vitro and cause growth defect in Bacillus subtilis. The more active was C16-phosphoglycerate-MurNAc-(l-Ala-d-Glu)-GlcNAc, which also showed antibacterial activity. These molecules are promising leads for the design of new antibacterial GT inhibitors.
